FAST FACTS:
Investigators say they broke in after hours, tried to load up a U-haul with the safe, but they got busted. The suspected crooks made a quick escape by busting out a window. But that escape didn't last long. Police nabbed three of the four men after they hopped in a car, and raced west on I-40. The fourth was caught after he took off on foot.
All four men are from the Memphis area and could be connected to a series of similar, recent Chick-fil-A burglaries in Memphis.
"We understand from the Memphis Police Department that they've had some similar cases at the Chick-fil-A stores there," explained Lieutenant Hampton of the Jackson Police Department. "It may possibly be the same persons that we arrested here in Jackson. "
Two of the Memphis fast food restaurants were recently burglarized.
Surveillance cameras show at least three suspects burglarized the Poplar location in East Memphis by busting through a side window. They took off in a green Explorer.
A similar heist happened at the brand new Chick-fil-A in Midtown.
Before it opened in late October, crooks in a late 80's Chevy pick-up truck broke in.
In both cases they made off with the safe and an undisclosed amount of money. The wife of Adrian Norry, one of the men arrested, didn't want to talk about her husband's recent arrest when we stopped by her North Memphis home.
"Get that camera out of my face," she said.
But Earlene Milligan opened up about Derrick Bond. She's lived next door to his family for nearly twenty years.
"It seems that he's been in trouble all of his life. Since he was a teenager," she said.
All four suspects are behind bars in Jackson. A fifth suspect is still on the run.
